Well, I think you should just stick with the tool that works for you. I´m
currently using Flash 8 IDE to build the layout and assets, and, for
me, it
is pretty good to build forms as well. The rest I do outside Flash, in
FlashDevelop and compile with MTASC ;)
It´s just another way to build the views... and there are tons of ways
you
can do that... what really matters to me is the advent of AS3 that is for
sure above all this discussion...
Marcelo.
It's exactly this kind of thing that has me looking into Flex - It seems
like Flash IDE is very good for some of the things it tries to do
(animation, assets production, etc.) but falls apart when you need to
actually make a swf that works like an application. From the replies to
this thread it sounds like others have found this to be true as well,
and so people are using the Flash IDE in the way you've described, while
resorting to outside tools to get the application level work done (like
FlashDevelop and MTASC - and eventually, Adobe's free compiler I would
imagine).
This situation for me answers pretty clearly the question of where Flex
Builder fits in.
This thread has been very informative. Thanks a bunch. :-)
